The Company had no proposals for the bargaining team and spent the better part of yesterday away from the table.

There are many important issues left out there and the bargaining team is fully prepared to address each of them…it’s up to the Company to make that happen. Hopefully today there will be some movement.

The majority of the outstanding issues could be resolved if the Company would come off of their retrogressive proposals and retain current contract language. The team has made it abundantly clear; we will not retreat from current contract language!

The team will keep the heat on at the table; the members should keep the heat up in the field!
